that is so weird.  i just had my daughter at the rheumies office, and he could

not figure out, why she is still in so much pain.  says there is a rsd thing

going on in her body, which does not fit.  then he said let's check her vit. d

levels.  her level is supposed tp be anywhere between 34-50, and her was 8.  he

put her on 50,000 iu 2x a week for 6 weeks.  i read that vit.d levels that are

low can cause pain, arthritie, fibro, and other things.  thank you for that

site.  shelly, mom to ciarra, sojia

I wonder why there are so many kids that are low in Vit D.? Jaye was at <

4 when she was tested.? I am sure that we will have it tested again?when we see

the rheumy at the end of August. He put her on 1200 iu each day. She has been on

that since April or May I think.? If so many are low I wonder why this was the

first time that Jaye was even tested for it.

According to Hannah's endocrinologist there just are not a lot of studies on

kids and vitamin D.  It's a relatively new thing that has come up.  I can tell

you Hannah was very low (below 10 when we started).  It 8 mos of various doses

before she came into normal range.  She can now tell me when she thinks she's

low she can feel a total difference in her joints.  She went up as high as

50,000 units a week for a while.  She is now on a maintenance dose of 1,000

units daily and will get rechecked in October and if she stays stable, she will

get checked yearly thereafter.
